The Pulaski County Commissioners discussed purchasing an ambulance during their meeting Monday.
In a previous meeting, two bids were opened and taken under advisement. The first bid opened was from Crossroad Ambulance Sales and Service LLC in the amount of $258,967. The second and final bid came from Fire Service Inc. at $255,263.
Emergency Medical Services Director Brandon DeLorenzo told WKVI news the EMS department is planning on retiring two ambulances from their fleet. He added the current bids are for one brand new ambulance that is on a Ford chassis.
The commissioners were expected to award one of the bids during their meeting Monday, instead a motion to table the purchase was made. That motion was seconded and passed unanimously by vote. The commissioners hope to award one of the two bids at their next meeting.
